Workflow for Bank Communication Management

Hi ,
I need to find out any SAP workflows are responsible for the below activities in Bank communication management .
spro-Financial Supply Chain Management- > Bank Communication Management -> Release Strategy -> Change and Release ->
Assign Role to Release Steps  , Here i am assigning rule - 96000144 against Rel Obj  BNK_INI .
In pfac for rule 96000144 , i am assigning responsibilities where i am maintaining Agents ( User IDs ) .
The rule IDs  specific to amount limits are maintained in SPRO under Financial Supply Chain Management- > Bank Communication Management ->  Payment Grouping
When in t code bnk_moni , for Bat No , the approver list has to be displayed .
If anyone has any idea on Workflow related to Bank Communication Management , suggestion will be highly appreciated .
Regards
Prabhudutta

Please check OSS 1041016, it contains documentation on BCM WF setup.
Rememeber that release WF is needed only if you have more than one release step - first release step is always done via BNK_APP, at the moment it's hardcoded in BCM (if you have all the latest patches).

  • Create/Merge batch for HR payroll BCM (Bank Communication Management)

    Hi All,
    This with reference to BCM (Bank Communication Management) EHP4
    How to create/Merge batch for HR payroll in BCM?
    Thanks in advance for your support
    Regards,
    MS

    Hi MS,
    First go to t-code 'OBPM5 -'Reservation for cross payment run Payment media' and reserve a Prefix for HR payment runs.
    Then in IMG maintain a rule for HR payment runs:
    In IMG go to Financial Supply Chain Management > Bank Communication Management > Payment
    Grouping > Rule Maintenance
    Here if you want to select all HR payments into one merged payment run just select 'Merge ID' as the selection criteria. You can also include multiple rules to merge them separately. For example if you want to put all HR payments below USD10000.00 into one payment run and all others into another payment run then you can create two rules or one rule with two selection critera.
    It is very flexible. If you want I can send a SAP's cofig guide.

  • Payment Rule maintenance per currency in Bank Communication Management

    Hi,
    We have maintained Rules for Payment Grouping in Bank Communication Management based on amount limits. The basic currency we expected is GBP so we have the same set of amount limits for all Company Codes until now.
    We've now introduced a new Company Code which makes payments in USD. We'd like the same amount limits to be used for payments from this Company Code too.
    Eg: We have a rule for amount range from 100K to 150K. If the payment is in GBP the rule gets picked up if the payment amount is between 100K GBP and 150K GBP.
    Now if a USD payment is made of 130K USD, the above rule gets picked up. We would like to see that the GBP equivalent of 130K USD... i.e. 205K USD is considered as the amount and a suitable rule is picked up.
    How do we achieve this in the rule definitions? I see that the Currency field limits the rule to be considered only for payments made in one currency. Is there a way of associating the amount limits to a base currency so that other currency payments will get converted against this currency and be evaluated?
    Would appreciate any help in this regard as we're at a loss currently.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Bank Communication Management - Incoming messages from Banks

    Hi,
    We are using Bank communication management. When we send our ACH and Wire files to the bank, the bank sends two confirmations: 1. First confirmation says that the file is received. 2. Second confirmation sends the total number of items and total amount in the payment file.
    I have done the necessary configuration in BCM in the step shown below:
    Financial Supply Chain Management ® Bank Communication Management ® Payment Status Management ® Map External Status to Internal Status
    How do I update this in the payment monitor (T-CODE - BNK_MONI)?
    SAP says
    You must connect the XI system to the ERP system. The interface Collective Payment Order Notification must be set up. What is this interface 'Collective payment order notification' and where should I set it up?
    Any help in this regard is greatly appreciated.
    Kalyan

    Hi Ankish,
    As mentioned by Kalyan above (check suggestions from SAP in his comment), you should use the interface Collective Payment Order Notification given by SAP in ESR (Enterprise Service Repository) SAP APPL (SAP APPL 6.05). If your PI environment doesnot have it then you need to request yuor basis to download this from SAP.
    After you download the ESR , you can find the standard Service interface called "CollectivePaymentOrderNotification_In" under Namespace http://sap.com/xi/APPL/Global2 .
    Now once you have this interface downloaded,  create a new message mapping using the message Type "CollectivePaymentOrderNotification_async" as Target,  and your message  from BANK or SWIFT (uploaded into PI as external definition) as source. Map the required fields , mainly map the external status code from BANK to ExecutionStatusCode field. Also map the required header fields.
    Once you create the new mapping , create required Integration builder objects and you are all set.
    The CollectivePaymentOrderNotification interface is proxy in ECC which has required methods to update the BCM with the status.
    Also please check below links for more information.

  • SAP Bank Communications Management

    Hi
    I wonder if anyone can help?  We are currently exploring with our bank using their facility for transmitting Payment Files directly to them through a secure transfer and also retrieving Statements, Forecasts, Acknowledgments and Rejections.  The Payments files, Statements and Forecasts will use standard formats such as MT103/940 etc.
    What we want to achieve is integrating with SAP using some standard functionality that will allow the Cash Management team an easy way of monitoring and controlling the payments.
    Can anyone clarify whether the Bank Communication Management tool can be used for the above scenario or will it only allow you to use it if you have a direct connection to SWIFTnet??
    Thanks in advance
    Adam

    Adam,
    You are right. BCM is the tool. What  BCM can do is:
    1. Batch payment runs into batches as per your requirement. For example you run say F110 10 times a day for EFT. Based on the BCM rules you can combine these 10 Payments runs into one or more batches
    2. After having batched the payments, you can view them in BCM payment monitor.  with the current status. From here you can drill down to the payment run and view the paid items.
    3. After you receive ACK/NACK (Acknowledgement or rejection notices) message from SWIFT you can update this monitor and your Treasury/Cash management people can view this status. You can also set 'alerts' in case of rejection so that the responsible person can get an email and he/she can take immediate action.
    4. Treasury/Cash management can also approve the payment, depending on cash availability stop the payment and can release it the next day once they have money. By this you are not reversing the payment, but it is just kept pending in BCM.

  • Bank Communication Management - Transfer between accounts

    Hi,
    I am looking at the possiility to implement the BCM, however in a simple transfer between accounts that not have payment request and the file is generated by correspondence, I cannot reflect this in BCM. It is possible?
    Thanks,
    Regards

    HI Marques,
    Bank Communication Management is mainly for integrating to external banks / Merging of payments/ Payment approvals. For transferring of payments from one bank account to another bank account use repetitive code setup.

  • Workflow for Predefined Performance Management Process

    Hi All,
    We are in process of implementing Predefined Performance Management to our client, as I know we donu2019t have workflow for predefined performance management, but I saw below thread:
    Performance Management Process - Workflow between participants
    Please give me more clarification about configuration of Workflow for PMP, we need e-mail notifications only when ever manager is going to do some status change like approve planning phase, reject planning phase etc.
    We are expecting these notifications not through portal only employees e-mail account, can you tell me where the location of the configuration is?
    Thanks in advance.
    -Abhi

    Hi,
    The pre-defined is not ment for changing by anyone. The template is generated and the settings are as is. You would need to go to the phap_catalog to change the template (but that option is disabled for PMP templates). Theoritically you would need to change the status flow tab and select the correct workflow there. The information workflow is standard delivered for use in the flexible one.
    So, yes you probably are able with tricks to get it working in PMP but it is not supported by SAP.

  • Workflow for Resource Object Management

    Hi All,
    I'm attempting to perform resource object management on an LDAP resource and have the following questions for a workflow related to this:
    1. Do I need to checkout the view for the LDAP resource to perform resource object management (by this I mean something similar to creating or updating a group within LDAP)?
    2. I will also be using a custom resource adapter to perform resource object management on that adapter. Can I assume that similar mechansims for LDAP will apply to my custom resource adapter?
    3. Can anyone point me to some standard workflows for resource object management, point any further docs (I've through the workflows, views, and forms, as well as the deployment guide for resource adapters).
    4. Does anyone have any examples of resource object managment they would be willing to share and explain.
    All input welcome, Thanks.

    Hi there, Did you manage to get some assitance with this? I am also trying to search for examples of using the Resource Object to provision new entries to an LDAP and to learn how to form workflows.

  • Bank Communication Management in different SAP system

    Hello guys,
    Right now at our client's company we have a total of 7 servers with SAP running on all of them, but only one of them(the central server "A") has BCM. The rest of the servers maintain RFC communications with it.
    Our goal is to centralize all bank communication interface management from payments coming from all servers in server "A".
    Does BCM support this, maintaining BCM management from a foreign system? I am guessing you could achieve this (for example) when you run F110, sending payment output via RFC/IDocs from server "X" to server "A"and back.
    I would really appreciate your comments on this,
    Thanks!

    Hi Peter

  • Simple MSMP workflow for Emergency Access Management

    Hi,
    I am not able to get the EAM to work in Access Control 10. The user is able to successfully place a access request for FFid but there is a error in the workflow logs. I have not done any customization of the MSMP for GRAC_DEFAULT_PATH and other similar stages, as I am not aware of the the specific values that need to be maintained.
    I want to avoid customizing as much as possible and use what SAP offers by default. The workflow steps I am looking for is : user places a request for FFid and the request is received by the FFid Owner (Manager) and approved by him, Once approved, the FFID is provisioned automatically and the user can login to tcode GRAC_SPM and use his FFid, and the Controller gets alerted about the log.

    Hi Veera,
    Did you define a condition in your initiator decision table in BRF+ to route your EAM requests to firefighter path.
    Do you have stage called FF Owner?
    Did you create a Firefighter path in MSMP configuration with FF Owner stage in it?
    Did you maintained route mapping in your MSMP workflow configuration?
    Please share your BRF+ initiator decision table and MSMP workflow config screenshots to help you further.
    If you are new to MSMP and BRF+ config, please check this link for understanding the concept.

  • Auto Approval Workflow for leave request Management.

    Hi Guru's,
    I am working on leave request Workflow i.e WS12300111.
    Now i have to implement the auto approval of workitem if the approver doesnt take any action in 3days.
    1. i have implemented deadline monitoring i.e in Latest end tab
    refer date/time :- Expression Date : %DATUM% Time : %UZEIT%    3 days Action : Modeled  Display test
    Outcome : Reminder Mail
    In outcome tab i have activated Processing obsolete.
    i have created an activity if the deadline is reached so that it should auto approve the workitem.
    in that activity i have created a copy of class CL_PT_REQ_WF_ATTRIBS created 1 method auto_approve. and used function module PT_ARQ_REQUEST_EXECUTE so that it will change the status from SENT to APPROVE.
    But when i apply leave in portal , workflow starts but it doesnt reach to branch auto approve after the deadline is reached.
    Please suggest is the deadline monitoring implemented correctly or not .
    whether the auto approve method used is correct or not
    or there is another solution to this
    I have checked the SWU3 setting and it is green.
    Please Advise
    Thanks in Advance

  • SAP Bank Communication Manager without PI

    Hello!
    We are currently implementing and configuring SAP BCM in our system and we are starting to reach the point where messages are being sent from BCM to bank. Every single piece of documentation we've been able to find points to the necessity of PI, but we are trying to avoid the use of PI altogether.
    In our system we have a legacy web server that hosts several critical web services and we hoped we could use this web server to create another service that would receive payment medium files and then forward them to bank. How could we achieve this? Configuring custom destinations for BCM wasn't part of any documentation we could find. Can our wish be fulfilled at all?
    Additionally, if we want to send these payment medium files to our web service then we have to wrap then in some kind of SOAP envelope. Is there a place (enhancement spot) where we could modify this payment medium before it is sent from BCM?
    Thank you for your help.

    Looks as if noone has experience with this kind of BCM implementation. Or another option is that it just can not be done.

  • Bank Communication Management

    Hi,
    I am working on BCM module. I have created 5 rules out of which one is automatic approval and the rest need dual approval.
    When I go to BNK_MONI transaction, i see that FBPM1 has created 5 different batches as per the rules defined. Out of the 5 one got approved automatically and the payment medium file is also created for this batch. For the other 4 I need to approve before the payment medium file gets created.
    When I  go to BNK_APP to approve, I do not see these 4 batches. What could be the reason?
    Appreciate any help.
    Thanks
    Kalyan
    It was a problem with setting of the workflow. Our technical team went through OSS Note 1041016 and fixed the problem and it worked fine.
    Also OSS Note 1577912 - FAQ on BCM - is also a very useful tool in trouble shooting various aspects of BCM.
    Thanks to all.
